Abstract

The S-9 Plant Germplasm Collection maintains and distributes germplasm of various horticultural crops, including pepper (Capsicum spp.), watermelon (Citrullus lanatus), okra (Abelmoschus spp.), eggplant (Solanum melongena), miscellaneous Solanum spp., sweetpotato (Ipomoea batatas spp.), luffa (Luffa spp.), gourds (Lagenaria and Momordica spp.), squash (Curcurbita moschata), pumpkin (Curcurbita maxima), marigold (Tagetes spp.), Stokes' aster (Stokesia laevis), hibiscus (Hibiscus spp.), Engelman daisy (Engelmannia pinnatifolia), pampasgrass (Cortaderia selloana), ornamental bamboo (Bambusa spp.), and other ornamental grasses. Seed or other propagules of these plant materials are available for research purposes. Detailed information on individual collections and general information on the USDA National Plant Germplasm System will be presented.
